The Devil Strikes: Sweetheart, Addicted

Chapter 389
When Mu Xiaran returned home and asked the housekeeper, he found out that Yin Jieyao hadn't come back yet.

The entire castle was originally empty, but now it looks even more empty...

The housekeeper saw that Mu Xiaran was in a bad mood, and was about to speak, when she saw her drooping her head, walking upstairs, and swallowed the words that came to her lips, so she had to report it to the young master afterwards.

At this time, Yin Jieyao was in the royal family.

If Yin Jieyao's home is a luxurious castle, then the royal family is a super large palace.

The low-key and luxurious office is decorated with dark blue as the main color. In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, you can have a panoramic view of the royal family's back garden.

However, at this time, Yin Jieyao frowned tightly, leaning against the desk with a gloomy expression.

Mo Hanxuan led the Mohist army to the side, and the whole office was eerily silent.

Now, it was not Lance, that idiot who stole the medicine, but a cunning fox with its tail exposed but unable to catch it—Yeran.

It was only a few hours ago that the news below officially reached the royal headquarters. This news was like throwing a dud bomb into a crowded place. It didn't explode, but it made people panic.

The YS team has solemnly declared that new neurological drugs cannot be taken together with ordinary neurological drugs, as they will cause negative effects on the body.

This negative impact is just a euphemistic brief description here. If it is declared to the outside world, the negative impact is a chronic toxin, which may cause the people to panic.

Obviously, he was about to get the right of inheritance, but Yeran gave him a fatal blow at this time. If he didn't succeed in getting back the batch of medicine, Mr. Yu and those people might find some new excuse to impeach him.

Not long after the news was received, there was no further text. Now Mr. Yin is having a meeting with members of the Royal Family Center. All he can do is wait here.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Yin Jieyao took out his mobile phone, saw that it was the landline number in the castle, and picked it up.

"Master, when will you be home?"

"I might not go back today..."

"...Um, young master, Miss Mu doesn't seem to be in a very good mood. She went upstairs without taking a few bites of dinner. Would you like to call and ask?" The butler also reported the truth out of worry about Mu Xiaran. I was afraid that the young lady would keep her discomfort in her heart and not tell them, and it would be too late when they found out that something was wrong.

Yin Jieyao frowned, not out of boredom, but just worried that the girl felt guilty because of Han Gaoya's affairs...

"Well, I see."

After hanging up the phone, Yin Jieyao immediately called Mu Xiaran, and was quickly connected.

Hearing her brisk voice, the few lingering worries in her heart also dissipated, and the tense lines became much softer.

"I heard from the housekeeper that you didn't eat well?"

Mu Xiaran's heart skipped a beat, she subconsciously glanced at the snacks in her arms, and said with a small mouth, "You won't come back to eat with me, how uncomfortable it is for me to sit there alone, if I knew you wouldn't come back, I would I went home for dinner, at least my father and brother are with me when I get home, so I don’t have to be alone..."

Hearing the phrase 'a lonely person', Yin Jieyao felt a faint pain in his heart.

It was because he subconsciously ignored Ran Er's feelings. He only thought that by solving the matter here as soon as possible, he would be able to spend more time with Ran Er, and even focus on Xi. Talking about Xi and Ran'er, he can't protect himself!
